Computers can now store all forms of information: records, documents, images, sound recordings, videos, scientific data, and many new data formats. Society has made great strides in capturing, storing, managing, analyzing, and visualizing this data. These tasks are generically called data management. This article sketches the evolution of data management systems. There have been six distinct ph...

information technology as a new and very efficient tool in human communications has multiple functions that effect on public affair management is one of them. along with growth & spread of such technologies in contemporary world, this function simultaneously has spread & is changing to be an important paradigm in management & regional administration all over the world. in the other hand, good g...

Based on experience gathered with several releases of the CoreMedia Content Application Platform (CAP), we argue that a modern, generalized Content Management System should, as database systems do, support explicit content schemata. To control the inevitable evolution of the content schema, the schema should be subject to configuration management together with the actual content. We propose a t...

Nonlinear constrained programing problem (NCPP) has been arisen in diverse range of sciences such as portfolio, economic management etc.. In this paper, a multiobjective imperialist competitive evolutionary algorithm for solving NCPP is proposed. Firstly, we transform the NCPP into a biobjective optimization problem. Secondly, in order to improve the diversity of evolution country swarm, and he...

Inspired by the seminal paper on ”Model Transformations? Transformation Models!” [1] we will have a fresh look on the evolution of model evolution. Model evolution is more and more seen as part of change management in general with change as first class principle in the whole software product lifecycle. Thus, a descriptive notion of evolution in terms of evolution models is necessary. In this ta...
